Neither Shop. Art'laitii
Lyimr between Assam and f'.imnah
is the n*nioU* little hill state of Maui
pur. lately visited by Indian olUccrs.
one of whom, writing on the forests of
tlx;state in Indian Forests, gives an ex
traordinary account of Imphail, the
capital. It is situated in whaf appears
n uense forest.
“Neither spires nor ehimficys cut
the blue sky, nor is smoke observed to
ascend from the sylvan scene of the
capital. Nothing, in fact, bespeaks of
the busy homo of 30,000 to 40,000
jteoplc, and ^et hidden away among
theso trees is the palace of the rajah,
und hard by are the houses of his fa
vorites, each family having a large
inclosure around the homestead. Im
phail may thus be described as a city
of villages, or rather suburban resi
deuces, around the palace. Straight,
wide roads, lined with trees, frequently
intersecting each other at right angles,
fttford the means of communication,
but neither shop, artisan nor wheeled
conveyance exists in the city ; indus
try and skill occur only in the distant
rural homes.”
Tho peoplo of the capital nro the
f iromoted favorites of the ruler, who
lavo had assigned to them plots of
ground near tno jialaco, and liyo by
pressing upon tho persecuted agricul
turists of tno state.
Tho capital of Manipur is a royal
residence dedicated to luxury and
amusement. Tho streets are crowded
witli smiling healthy faces, o. which
few bear the marks of toil 01 labor.
Thero are no schools in tho si ite, and
court favor und promotion are secured
by success in polo. Coinage is un
known, and the men are not allowed
to trade; imports and exports, except
in certain articles that yield a royal
revenue, are practicalIv prohibited.
Tho women from the distant vil
luges repair on a cor Lain day to the cap
itul or to otlicr recognized centers.
Each carries on her heiul a neatly mado
smiaro basket, in -which has been
placed tho surplus stock of the home
stead, tho labors of her industrial
skill or of her husband's agricultural
knowledge. On reaching the market
placo tho contents of theso boskets aro
exposed and bartered, when each re
turns again toiler family, carrying off
the proceeds.
On nmrket days the long, straight
road from Rishcnpur to Imphail is
crowded by groups of women hurry
ing to und fro. Rich wours an ele
gantly striped dress in bright colors
made of silk and cotton. Tho stripes
run nlongtho length, und top and bot
tom aro neatly cinbroidcd. A long pipe©
of cloth is clovcrly carried across tho
breast and just under tho urmpits, in
stead of round tho waist, and is firmly
tucked up, so that tho top embroider
ed edgo rails forwaixl, adding an ad
ditional fold to tho garment, while tho
bottom edgo reaches a littlo below tho
knees. Tno legs and arms arc left ex*
l>osed. Tho women ure tho only trad
ers in tho whole state.— London Times.
l*ut In the Law.
{There is one other thing that ought
co bo mado a penal offenso, with n
minimum flno of nt least $$00, with
imprisonment of not Ions than six
months. It is that of doubting the
statements of a man who has been
n-fishing. Fish havo been caught
ever sinco hooks were invented. The
fish wero mado to bo caught. They
rather expect it It is no trick at all
to catch llsli. And yet as Jones re
turns from his vocation ho Is stopped
and asked:
“Been away?” "Yes."
“Up north?" “Yes.”
“Went fishing, I suppose?" “Of
course.”
“Catch anything?” “Certainly."
“Xl’ml Caught some four pounders,
I presumo?"
“Yes; I caught one which weighed
seven pounds,
“ITml Good-by!"
Jones not only caught one weigh
ing seven pounds, but n number
which weighed five and six pounds
apiece, but ho dared not speak of it.
Even with wlmt ho did say ho felt
that tho other man believed him to h
a liar. As ho walked oil he felt In
littlcd und degraded, and he made up
his mind to tell a lx>ld lie on the next
occasion and declare that lie did not
even soo a fish while ho Was gone.
Something should be done in this mat
ter, and it cannot bo done too soon.
A man should bo protected in telling
the truth as well as in life and limb.—

old philosopher, “which a woman
should 1)0 like and at the sumo time

“In the first {dace sin* should be like

“Again, she should U» like an echo,

tho echo is always bound to have the

Tho lirst class in “sjxdlin’ ” was a
